RIAA says file sharing finally "contained"

I hate the RIAA.

How can they sleep at night?

 

Maybe we should let the RIAA take over Iraq, they may do better fighting the insurgency.

 

I still use Kazaa Resurrection to find files that I can't on my pay program.

 

Cool, now maybe Lars will stop pacing back and forth on my doorstep waiting for payment from that copy of 'Ride The Lightning' I downloaded back in 2003.

 

i still remember the day i came home after school, tried to log into napster, and got a pop-up saying i was banned. i was sofa king pissed that i called up my friend and started b****ing to him about Metallica. i had just got the computer a couple months earlier too and i felt my whole digital world was collapsing.

 

ROFL! omg did i read that right? The RIAA is educating kids about copyright laws. A-la- D.A.R.E these people really have no shame. The stupidest idea I have ever heard.

 

ha! the riaa is 10 steps behind the swappers always..............

 

They'll never win. Too much red tape. underoverup is right on. The only way it can be regulated is to buy the internet. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmkay?

 

My girlfriend works abroad and she occasonally attends these iPod parties. People bring there ipods/ibooks and just swap ungodly amounts of music. Then she uses PodUtil to download them back onto her harddrive. Songs bought on iTunes are converted to mp3's so no password are needed.

 

Your all sinners and shall be damned to hell!

Sincerely,

I thought Apple did their damnest to prevent MP3 conversion.

 

Downloading music illegally isn't that bad. I have actually discovered some artists that I would have never even heard of if it wasn't for the internet. I became fans of theirs. I still don't buy their music but at least they got a new fan.

 

I just moved to Austin. It is IMPERATIVE that R2K avoids the law with his video distribution scheme.

 

I'm going to download some Nelly single later tonight just stick it to the man.

 

Contained like a stinky fart in a small car on a cold night.

 

When I pull the occasional file off of Soulseek or Shareaza, there are 4 or 5 million people logged on. I feel like one of those little herring in the middle of the giant school, the odds of getting picked off are really slim, especially when I see people with 10,000 files that stay logged on 24/7.

I think the RIAA is using the Viet Nam strategy where you just declare victory and go home in the face of an unwinnable situation.

 

mixed with cheap perfume.

 

These networks aren't anonymous.

The RIAA is a big shark. Just remember to swim with the pack....

 

True, I'm only on when I'm looking for something. I share some more esoteric files that I would like people to hear but not any popular music that the RIAA might be looking to defend (they are not looking for Hippie Gumbo or Dread Zepplin files)
